I almost hit the Cash 5 Lotto tonight, got 4 out of 5 numbers buying just one $1 ticket, would have had about 1.5 million but at least got $218.50 lol. Never got that many numbers before on the Cash 5 only 3, and it rolled to 1.6 million. Hopefully next time! why couldn't that 14 be a 5 lol.

Congrats ! I got 4 out of 5 on Georgia Fantasy Five, maybe 12 or 13 times over the spam of maybe 15 years. Just can't seem to tighten it up for that 5th number. Georgia has 39 numbers to choose from. A long time ago, it was only 35 numbers if I recall correctly. Ever since they added the additional numbers, I think I got 4 out of 5 maybe once or twice. I used to really think I was going to win that game, but now my efforts are basically limited to getting a few quick picks after I play my Cash 4 numbers in the evening. The winner is usually someone who never even heard of Fantasy Five but won on a quick pick after asking the store clerk "what's playing tonight ?", Lol, sad but true !

Thanks, yeah I do not play the Cash 5 much even only once in a awhile and only one ticket. I won the Big 4 twice for $2600 each time on a $1.00 play and playing on a whim picking my own numbers. This was a QP and a crazy combination which seems to be normal for most jackpots. Of course one person won it the next day lol. That should have been me! Crazy how just one number can make a drastic difference in your life. They made it harder her as well with 43 balls. But I was glad to at least win something but sucks to miss a jackpot by one lol. I tried to post a pic of the ticket but they don't seem to work on this site, and is overly complicated it seems.

okay, I can can see then how a 1.5 million jackpot would easily be possible with 43 balls.
Georgia should be a piece of cake with only 39, Lol
Only every once in a while does the jackpot in Georgia ever reach 1 million.
And yes, the difference between 4 and 5 numbers is the difference between day and night !
